The Deity news that is going on between Apostle Johnson Suleman of Omega Fire Ministries and one Stephanie Otobo has come with something new as Apostle
Johnson Suleman's lawyer in the name of Barrister Osa Director, just waded in
threatening to sue Sahara Reporters for N1 billion and also labeling
Miss Otobo’s allegation as a lie from the pit of hell.

Press statement:

The attention of our Client, Apostle Johnson Suleman has been drawn to
the online Publication by Sahara reporters. It is with utter
consternation and indignation that our client received the news that one
Stephanie Otobo is claiming to be his lover, after he proposed marriage
to her in 2015 but later reneged. The Story was based on a purported
letter written by Festus Keyamo’s Chambers.
Our Client has not
received any letter from the Chambers of Keyamo or any law firm
whatsoever. Therefore it is a gross violation of the natural Justice
principle of audi alteram partem to embark on a media trial of our
client without giving him fair hearing.

However, anytime we get a letter from Keyamo or any law firm, we shall
respond appropriately and adequately without the unethical side kick of
undue media attention.

For the records, our Client unequivocally denies any amorous
relationship with the said Stephanie. Her claims as stated by Keyamo is
vexatious, malicious and a wicked concoction from the pit of hell. As it
is customary with our Client he has never had anyone-on-one encounter
with the said Stephanie.

Although sometimes in 2015, after a crusade in Canada, our Client
received a call from a person who introduced herself as Stephanie, and
claimed to have been blessed by the spiritual ministration of our
Client. Further probings from our Client revealed that Stephanie was a
night club stripper. Our Client insisted that she must change her ways,
if indeed she wants to receive Christ. But she later complained of no
other means of survival and pleaded for assistance to open an Africa
Kitchen food Store.

Our Client being a habitual and chronic philanthropist, with a heart for
the poor and the underprivileged promised to assist, and he did. After
almost a year she later complained of being broke and business was not
looking well and asked for financial assistance from our Client, which
he obliged. Those were the only two occasions our Clients rendered
financial help to her, and withdrew after some unsavoury disclosures by
Stephanie and her reluctance to truly mend her ways, and embrace Christ.

It was therefore strange and gut wrenching to hear several years after
from Stephanie, who in collaboration with a gang of five ,which include
her Canadian based
boyfriend, Wisdom and a top ranking police
officer based in Lagos State approach our Client and demanding a ransom
payment of N500.milion , otherwise they threaten to provide a tell tale
story of romance between our Client and Stephanie to the media and
hoodwink the innocent public with the view of ridiculing our Client’s
worth and integrity in the public eye.

As a principled man of God, our Client refused to budge to their cheap
tantrums of blackmail, knowing full well that you cannot build something
on nothing, as an amorous relationship NEVER existed between him and
Stephanie.

If true that our Client proposed marriage to Stephanie and conducted a
marriage introduction ceremony, we challenged her to provide evidence of
the occasion, either photographs or video clips.

Who were the Family members present at the occasion? Where was the ceremony conducted?
We have since contacted the father of Stephanie, one Revered Benson
Otobo, who pastors a church in Warri and have businesses in Lagos and
Abuja. He described his daughter as ‘wayward and desperate to make
money’ He said he was not even aware that Stephanie was in Nigeria and
thoroughly denied any marriage introduction ceremony, saying that
Apostle Suleman never came to his house, or family home to introduce
himself as suitor to his daughter.

He emphatically disassociated himself from whatever blackmailing scheme
the daughter is engaged in, ‘I want to clearly state that I am not a
part of her gang of blackmailers or a party to her desperate money
making scheme’
Stephanie and her gang has since been arrested by the
Nigeria Police as they were also recorded on tape disclosing their
links with the dreaded terrorist gang, Boko Haram. They threatened to
unleash Boko Harem and kill Apostle Suleman. As agents of terrorism, the
Police is investigating the depth of their involvement in the several
terrorist attacks in the country.

That is beside the charges of blackmail and attempt to extort money from Apostle Suleman.
We have our Clients instruction to demand a retraction of the story
from sahara reporters and publication of an apology letter seven days
from today. We are also demanding one billion naira compensation as
damages.
Our Client will never and shall never succumb to blackmailers and their antics, no matter how highly placed.
